Last week the BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2019 was released, covering energy data through 2018. The Review provides a comprehensive picture of supply and demand for major energy sources on a country-level basis. I consider it to be the bible of energy data. It is a primary source of data for numerous companies, government agencies and non-government organizations.
Since its release, I have been busy analyzing the data and creating graphics. I strive to uncover nuggets of information and analyze the data in unique ways. In upcoming articles I will detail which countries are biggest producers and consumers of various types of energy, but today I want to cover the Review’s data on carbon emissions.
